D.2.8.1 changechar

Procedure from library ring.lib (see ring_lib).

Usage:
changechar(c[,r]); c=list, r=ring

Return:
ring R, obtained from the ring r [default: r=basering], by changing ringlist(r)[1] to c.

Example:
 
LIB "ring.lib";
ring rr=2,A,dp;
ring r=0,(x,y,u,v),(dp(2),ds);
def R=changechar(ringlist(rr)); R;"";
==> //   characteristic : 2
==> //   1 parameter    : A 
==> //   minpoly        : 0
==> //   number of vars : 4
==> //        block   1 : ordering dp
==> //                  : names    x y
==> //        block   2 : ordering ds
==> //                  : names    u v
==> //        block   3 : ordering C
==> 
def R1=changechar(32003,R); setring R1; R1;
==> //   characteristic : 32003
